Start selling

[Foxin_Mad]

I’m not sure why anyone thinks someone buys Wilf this year when no one took him on a free last year

This would be fine if they change their approach. These lot would pay off all our current squad, then sign a load more duds or pensioners and stick them on silly money.

Have to agree, sadly while the muppets at the top are here we will probably build solid foundations around Wout Faes

[Nick57]

Hopefully the players with a chance of playing in the world cup next year will leave to improve their chances of being selected.

[les-tah]

With Man utd dropping their keeper and Chelsea also likely interested in Hermansen we can get a good bidding war that could lead to a loan coming our way in the champ.

[Jimmy]

apparently PNE have agreed a deal with Iversen for next season, with Hermansen likely being sold and Ward finally ****ing off I wouldn't be averse to giving Iversen a new 1-2 year deal to be the number 2 so we can spec resources elsewhere

[Bluearmyfox28]

Hermansen - £40m

Vestegaard - £3m

Faes - £7.5m

Okoli - £10m (can’t see him staying)

Kristensen - £8m

Soumare - £8m

Ayew - £4m

Reid - £2m

Daka - £8m

 

Total = £88.5m
 

Not sure how much that would leave for us to spend.

A structure of a deal if Monaco reignite their interest in Soumare which I believe they will:

 

Transfer fee breakdown

Base fee - £8.6 million

Add-Ons: Up to £5.2 million based on incentives

Total Potential Package: £13.8 million

 

Payment structure

• £6.6 million due in July 2025 (immediate cash for Leicester)

• £2 million due in January 2026 (within same financial year)

 

Performance based add-ons

• +£1.7m if Soumare makes 30+ appearances (2025–26 season)

• +£1.7m if Monaco qualifies for UEFA competition (2025–26)

• +£1.7m if Monaco sells him for over £12.9m by June 2028

 

Sell-on clause

• 20% of profit on any future resale (e.g., Monaco sells for £17m → Leicester earns ~£1.68m)

 

Wages & Transition Support

• Proposed Monaco Wage: ~£56,000 per week

• Leicester to either:

• Pay a £1.7m severance bonus to cancel final contract year

• Or provide a £24,000/week subsidy for 12 months (total ~£1.25m)

 

Transfer deadline

• Agreement Signed: By June 30, 2025

• Transfer Registered: By July 15, 2025 (preseason integration)

You do know they can sign him for nothing in January, we need to sell them so no-one going to be paying over 10m

[les-tah]

We just need Saudi League to come in big for one player… 

 

Faes, Ndidi, Daka, Soumare please just take one at an inflated price.

[Jock's Hill]

Looking at the contract expiry dates for our squad we really do need to clear those given ridiculous new contracts. Yes, Mads and Bilal will hopefully command a decent fee but the following with contracts expiring in 27 or 28 need to be moved on for any reasonable fee/deal.

2027 - Vestergaard, Faes, Choudhury, Ndidi and BDCR.

2028 - Kristensen

There are obviously others we need to move on but getting any of the above off the wage bill would be a real positive going forward.

[dooflip]

Apart from a few (mads, bilal, Abdul) and we just need to accept whatever clubs are offering and get them gone, and start again.

Build a cheap young squad with young and hungry players. Even if we don’t go up straight away, it’s the way to go.

[Simonb]

Can't see Mads going for £40m now we're relegated and clearly in a mess. 

 

Hermansen 25m

Bilal 25m (has a release clause, surely around this figure)

Faes 5m

Soumare 5m

Okoli loan 

Kristiansen loan with obligation 

Winks 3m

Choudhury 2m

Ndidi 4m

 

We really don't have any assets. We have to be realistic, we're stuck with daka, ayew, bdcr, vestergaard and Coady. So I don't really see us having any money left to spend other than on loans.

 

Only positive is there are some huge wages being lost if we get rid of some of these, alongside the goats departure
